Silence

Here's something I've been working at for a little while now.

Song: SILENCE

Artist: THE TEA PARTY

Tabbed by: KRIST SMITH

-----------------------

This song uses another cool tuning (I think it's something like open Gsus2/D

or something):

e tuned down to d

B tuned down to A

G left the same

D left the same

A tuned down to G

E tuned down to D

There are a lot of instruments in on this, so I'm VERY likely wrong. This

is just MY interpretation. The timing is probably wrong (I'm not that good).

It's just four dashes (-) for every quarter note. This is just a guess, but

I think it's in 4/4 timing (please correct me).

Si-lent spirit watch me for me with her beauty and with her eyes

Heaven help me I feel I'm fading I should rest here for a while

(INTRO riff again)

VERSE riff over

In the springtime I'm awakened as my spirits sieze the night

Heaven help me I'm foresaken I should rest here for a while

(For the beginning, just improvise by playing assorted notes on the B (A)

string and the two lower ones open [like the verse], but remember to keep

them in scale-just fool around with it).

Well, that's my interpretation.

Corrections/lyrics are requested. Anyone want to take the time to type

out the lyrics of the rest of the songs from the CD liner? (I don't have it)
